openssh unix dev - Aug 2002 - sshd doesn't log hostname into utmp correctly [resend]

Hi,

Though I sent this message before, I didn't get any response.  So, I
send this message, again.
This problem is occur when the connection is form IPv6, and IPv4 is
not affected.

openssh-3.4p1 doesn't handle actual size of struct sockaddr correctly,
and does copy it as long as just size of struct sockaddr.  So, sshd
deesn't log hostname into utmp correctly.  Here is a patch to fix this
problem.

Sincerely,

thanks.  which utmp field is effected?  in loginrec.c i see ut_addr
being set from sockaddr, but for AF_INET only.  and ut_host is set
from the login_alloc_entry() hostname argument it seems.
